I think these are stellar ideas to improve the system. It allows for genuinely different types of 'activity' to expand-- Believe it or not, or understandably, not everyone enjoys the whole Dominion-grind-every-month, even if some do, and it's cool it works for you but it just doesn't work for, say, me --and definitely keeps things from being stagnant.

I can't say I have any suggestions for improvement, but I'll follow the thread to see where the discussion goes.

I dig both characters, but I have to say I definitely got a fondness for Derriphan just because he seems to have that sort of dark fascination going on. Definitely, need to hit you up for threads or something once I clear out all the ones I owe.

If you've known me for literally less than 5 minutes you'll know two things, one, that I am a cryptid in human skin with passable art skills, and two that I have so many characters my muse pinballs between them faster than someone going for a world record, sometimes at random, sometimes with a pattern, sometimes for unexplainable reasons. Anyways!

I need stuff to do. This is my last week out till I move into college housing and it's shaping up to be one that will be long and monotonous, so I want to break that up with some good old roleplay (which means I'm in the right place). As my muse has, yet again, shifted inexplicably, these are the characters I've got up on the block today. Both of them are generally light-sided which is... Co-incidence, I promise.

Irella Toldreyn, someone whom I have no idea where to go with, really-- The sum of her interactions has been with angry Vizslas & it's actually fun to have her bounce off characters like that so take that as you will --Her backstory isn't necessarily written on her bio but it's summed up by; Coruscanti native, came to Nar Shaddaa as a relative-child, trained at a Jedi Praxeum there but refused to join the Exchange when it dissolved into that, and is basically homeless. Eternally homeless. Also a healer, and equivalent to an advanced Padawan. Her main dev comes from being hypocritical (Which leads to spirited dialogue) and being way too friendly, as well as having Synesthesia & managing that in an upside-down galaxy. Generally works best forced together with people she has conflicting values with so she has to see their side and make friends, and has a history of meeting up with non-ME Mandos so there's a place to start!

Ayessa Kroan, my time-travelling Jedi. Hangs out quite a bit with Nej Tane (So don't be shocked if there's a tag-along) and is a wanderer looking for new purpose, or jobs, whatever works? Unlike Irella she still sees herself as a 'Jedi' still but isn't very interested in hooking up with orders due to her disillusion; she works well with fellow Jedi characters due to the compare/contrast that comes with a TCW-era Knight interacting with a Chaos-era Knight. Willing to do all sorts of stuff with her to drive development 'cause she really needs it, I feel, and my muse for her is hiiiiigh.

Really looking to write with writers I haven't written with before too, so, uh, bring out yer' dead.

I'm always keen for more threads -- I have a lot of characters on my writer account that I'm in the slow process of merging but Ayessa Kroan & Nilia Saavilin & one more with a name too long for me to spell (my own personal curse) are the ones I'm writing actively and could do with some fun threading (Though Ayessa is a Jedi so that would either be super interesting or super stabby). Can definitely sympathize with everything you've said, too.

...If you don't remember me, hi. I'm a ghost. Sort of. I kind of died? It's a long personal story but I'm finally free from these chains of love. Anyways -- I did nice art sometimes and some nice writings sometimes a few months ago 'round here. That's sort of all there was to me. But apparently one does not simply leave this forum, so much like a dormant anime or the Spice Girls I'm here for my comeback tour.
